The City pays for all capital projects with input from CCYSO and other stakeholders on needs, design, coordination and more. The City is also responsible for fertilizer, herbicide and gopher abatement. All have to be carefully timed.

Programs start from input from community residents regarding needs and wishes. A budget is set, staffing identified for programs and a start date is set. Publicity is achieved through word of mouth, a calendar of events circulated through utility bills, current participants, the website, flyers and communications through schools.
